If you run a web server locally (same PC, or on your local network), you can get Cumulus to copy files instead of using FTP. You'll need to list the files on the files tab of the internet settings, and specify a file name for the remote file in each case. Don't tick the FTP? box. For the standard images, you can supply a folder name on the same screen, and they will all get copied there. Set everything else up as if you were using ftp, but don't supply a host name etc.
If you do not have a web site, or run a web server locally (same PC, or on your local network), you can get Cumulus to generate/copy html or image files locally instead of using FTP to place them remotely. You'll need to list the (source) file including paths on the files tab of the internet settings, and specify a destination path and file name for the remote file in each case. Don't tick the ''FTP?'' box. For the standard images, you can supply a folder name (specify on the same screen), and they will all get copied there. Set everything else up as if you were using ftp, but don't supply a host name etc.


There's a limit of 10 files on the files tab, but you can increase this to 20 files in version 1.9.2 (in version 1.9.3 it is 100 files) by editing cumulus.ini, with Cumulus stopped. Follow the format of the entries for first 10 files.
